FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to crystalline salts of psilocin and the processes for preparation thereof. The invention also relates to beneficial and therapeutic uses of the crystalline salts and of compositions containing the crystalline salt forms.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Crystalline forms of therapeutic drugs have been used to alter the physicochemical properties of the drug. Each crystalline form of a drug can have different solid-state (physical and chemical) properties which may be relevant for drug delivery. Crystalline forms often have better chemical and physical properties than corresponding non-crystalline forms such as the amorphous form. The differences in physical properties exhibited by a novel solid form of a drug (such as a salt, polymorph or cocrystal) affect pharmaceutical parameters such as melting point, storage stability, compressibility, and density (relevant for formulation and product manufacturing), and dissolution rates and solubility (relevant factors in achieving suitable bioavailability).

Obtaining a suitable crystalline form of a drug is often a necessary stage for many orally available drugs. Suitable crystalline forms possess the desired properties of a particular drug. Such suitable crystalline forms may be obtained by forming a salt between the ionizable drug and a suitable acid/base. Salts often possess more favorable pharmaceutical and pharmacological properties or may be easier to process than known forms of the drug itself. For example, the salt may have different dissolution and solubility properties than the drug. Further, salts may be used as a convenient vehicle for drug delivery, and new drug formulations comprising salts of a given drug may have superior properties, for example, by facilitating better processing or handling characteristics, changing the dissolution profile in a favorable direction, or improving stability and shelf-life over existing formulations of the drug. As well, forming a salt is one way to avoid polymorph formation of the drug.

A salt of a drug (a supplement ingredient or an active pharmaceutical ingredient) is a distinct chemical composition between an ionizable drug that has been combined with a counter-ion (acid or base) to form a charge neutral complex. Salts generally possess distinct crystallographic and spectroscopic properties when combined in comparison to those of the individual drug and counter ion (acid or base). In a salt, the drug and counter-ion possess unique lattice positions within the unit cell of the crystal lattice. Crystallographic properties of salts can be analyzed as with other crystalline forms such as with X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) among other techniques. Salts often also exhibit distinct thermal behavior compared with other forms of the corresponding drug. Thermal behavior may be analyzed by such techniques as capillary melting point, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to name a few. These techniques can be used to identify and characterize the salts.

A necessary consideration when designing salts, if the end goal is a potential marketed drug-product, is incorporating a suitable counter ion (acid or base) with an acceptable toxicity profile. Within the pharmaceutical industry, counter ions (acids or bases) are typically selected from the pharmaceutically accepted salt formers, generally regarded as safe (GRAS) and/or everything added to food in the United States (EAFUS) lists, due to previous occurrence of these molecules in FDA approved drug or food products. Utilizing naturally occurring compounds as counter ions (acids or bases) gives extension to the list of potential molecules accessible to the pharmaceutical industry and provides additional physiological benefits to the consumer.

Psilocin (also known as 4-hydroxy DMT, 4-OH-DMT or 4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine) has a CAS number 520-53-6 and is a tryptamine alkaloid and a psychedelic substance. It is found in most psychedelic mushrooms with its phosphorylated counterpart psilocybin. In fact, once ingested, psilocybin is rapidly metabolized to psilocin, which then acts on serotonin receptors in the prefrontal cortex. The mind-altering effects of psilocin typically last from one to three hours, although to individuals under the influence of psilocin, the effects may seem to last much longer, since the drug can distort the perception of time. Psilocin has a low toxicity and has no significant effect on dopamine receptors, and reports of lethal doses of the drug are rare. As a therapeutic drug psilocin may be suitable for the treatment of diseases or disorders, or symptoms of diseases or disorders, such as anxiety, depression, psychotic disorder, Schizophrenia, major depressive disorder (MDD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder, headaches and withdrawal from opioids, cocaine, heroin, amphetamines, and nicotine.

One crystal structure of psilocin has been reported in the literature by T. J. Petcher and H. P. Weber in 1974 published in the Journal of Chemical Society, Perkin Transactions 2, Pages 946-948 with a CCDC Ref Code of PSILIN. In fact, the field of psilocin crystalline materials appears to be a relatively unexplored landscape. There remains a need, therefore, for other psilocin crystalline forms.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to new psilocin salts. In particular, the invention relates to a 1:1 psilocin benzoate salt; a 1:1 psilocin nicotinate salt; a 1:1 psilocin tartrate salt; a hemiacetone solvate of a 2:1 psilocin hemiadipate salt; a 1:1 psilocin fumarate salt; a 2:1 psilocin hemifumarate salt; a diethyl ether and/or ethanol-containing solvate of the 1:1 psilocin oxalate salt, wherein the stoichiometry of diethyl ether:ethanol:psilocin is about 0.2:0.1:1; a 1:1 psilocin DL-lactate salt; a 1:1 psilocin L-malate salt; and a 1:1 psilocin stearate salt. The invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing a psilocin salt of the invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable counter ion (acid). The psilocin salts may be used in the same way as psilocin. As a therapeutic drug, psilocin may be suitable for the treatment of diseases or disorders, or symptoms of diseases or disorders, such as anxiety, depression, psychotic disorder, Schizophrenia, major depressive disorder (MDD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder, headaches and withdrawal from opioids, cocaine, heroin, amphetamines, and nicotine as discussed above.

Therapeutic Uses of the Crystalline Psilocin Form

Psilocin (also known as 4-hydroxy DMT, 4-OH-DMT or 4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine) is known to be beneficial for human health. The invention also provides therapeutic and beneficial uses of the psilocin salts and methods for its delivery, and compositions, such as pharmaceutical dosage forms, containing the crystalline psilocin salts, to humans. The crystalline psilocin salts of the invention may then be used to treat diseases, disorders, and conditions, such as those discussed above, and to provide beneficial treatment for humans.

The invention then also relates to the method of treating such a disease, disorder or condition comprising the step of administering to a patient in need thereof a beneficial or therapeutically effective amount of a crystalline psilocin salt, a composition, or a pharmaceutical composition of the invention. Similarly, the invention relates to the use of psilocin to treat a disease, disorder or condition characterized by administering to a patient in need thereof a beneficial or therapeutically effective amount of a crystalline psilocin salt, a composition, or a pharmaceutical composition of the invention.

The invention then also relates to the method of treating (or the use of crystalline psilosin salts to treat) such a disease, disorder, or condition by administering to a human or animal patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective or beneficial amount of the crystalline psilocin salts of the invention or of administering to a human or animal patient in need thereof a therapeutic composition containing the crystalline psilocin of the invention. The term “treatment” or “treating” means any treatment of a disease, disorder or condition in a mammal, including: preventing or protecting against the disease, disorder or condition, that is, causing the clinical symptoms not to develop; inhibiting the disease, disorder or condition, that is arresting or suppressing, the development of clinical symptoms; and/or relieving the disease, disorder or condition (including the relief of discomfort associated with the condition or disorder), that is, causing the regression of clinical symptoms. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that in human medicine, it is not always possible to distinguish between “preventing” and “suppressing” since the ultimate inductive event or events may be unknown, latent, or the patient is not ascertained until well after the occurrence of the event or events. Therefore, as used herein the term “prophylaxis” is intended as an element of “treatment” to encompass both “preventing” and “suppressing” the disease, disorder or condition. The term “protection” is meant to include “prophylaxis.”

The crystalline psilocin salts of the invention may be administered at psilocin dosage levels of about 0.001 mg/kg to about 1.0 mg/kg, from about 0.01 mg/kg to about 0.5 mg/kg, or from about 0.1 mg/kg to about 0.20 mg/kg of subject body weight per day, one or more times a day, to obtain the desired effect. It will also be appreciated that, where appropriate, dosages smaller than 0.001 mg/kg or greater than 1.0 mg/kg (for example 1-2 mg/kg) can be administered to a subject in need thereof.

Compositions Containing the Crystalline Psilocin Salts

The invention also relates to compositions, such as dietary supplement and pharmaceutical compositions, comprising a beneficial or therapeutically effective amount of the crystalline psilocin salts according to the invention and a carrier, such as a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier (also known as a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient).

As mentioned above, these pharmaceutical compositions are therapeutically useful to treat or prevent disorders such as those discussed above.

A pharmaceutical composition of the invention may be in any pharmaceutical dosage form known in the art which contains the crystalline psilocin salts according to the invention. A composition, particularly a pharmaceutical composition, may be, for example, a tablet, a capsule, a liquid suspension, an injectable composition, a topical composition, an inhalable composition, or a transdermal composition. The compositions, particularly pharmaceutical compositions generally contain, for example, about 0.1% to about 99.9% by weight of the crystalline psilocin salts, for example, about 0.5% to about 99% by weight of the crystalline psilocin salts of the invention and, for example, 99.5% to 0.5% by weight of at least one suitable pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and/or excipient. The composition may also be between about 5% and about 75% by weight of the crystalline psilocin salts of the invention with the rest being at least one suitable pharmaceutical acceptable carrier and/or excipient, as discussed below.

EXAMPLES

The following reagents and analytical methods were used to prepare and characterize the psilocin salts 1-10 of the invention. For work done at room temperature (RT) that is generally about 25° C.

Reagents: Psilocin was acquired from Cayman Chemical and used as received. All other chemicals were purchased from various suppliers and used without further purification.

X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD): XRPD patterns for psilocin salts 1-7 were collected with a PANalytical X'Pert PRO MPD or a PANalytical Empyrean diffractometer using an incident beam of Cu radiation produced using an Optix long, fine-focus source. An elliptically graded multilayer mirror was used to focus Cu Kα X-rays through the specimen and onto the detector. Prior to the analysis, a silicon specimen (NIST SRM 640f) was analyzed to verify the observed position of the Si 111 peak is consistent with the NIST-certified position. A specimen of the sample was sandwiched between 3-μm-thick films and analyzed in transmission geometry. A beam-stop, short antiscatter extension, and antiscatter knife edge were used to minimize the background generated by air. Soller slits for the incident and diffracted beams were used to minimize broadening from axial divergence. Diffraction patterns were collected using a scanning position-sensitive detector (X'Celerator) located 240 mm from the specimen and Data Collector software v. 5.5.

XRPD patterns for psilocin salts 8-10 were collected with the Rigaku Smart-Lab X-ray diffraction system configured for reflection Bragg-Brentano geometry using a line source X-ray beam. The x-ray source was a Cu Long Fine Focus tube that was operated at 40 kV and 44 ma. That source provided an incident beam profile at the sample that changes from a narrow line at high angles to a broad rectangle at low angles. Beam conditioning slits were used on the line X-ray source to ensure that the maximum beam size was less than 10 mm both along the line and normal to the line. The Bragg-Brentano geometry is a para-focusing geometry controlled by passive divergence and receiving slits with the sample itself acting as the focusing component for the optics. The inherent resolution of Bragg-Brentano geometry is governed in part by the diffractometer radius and the width of the receiving slit used. Typically, the Rigaku Smart-Lab is operated to give peak widths of 0.1° 2θ or less. The axial divergence of the X-ray beam was controlled by 5.0-degree Soller slits in both the incident and diffracted beam paths.

Powder samples were prepared in a low background Si holder using light manual pressure to keep the sample surfaces flat and level with the reference surface of the sample holder. Each sample was analyzed from 2 to 40° 2θ using a continuous scan of 6° 2θ per minute with an effective step size of 0.02° 2θ.

X-ray Powder Diffraction Indexing: The patterns for psilocin salts 1-7 were indexed using proprietary software [TRIADS™ is covered by U.S. Pat. No. 8,576,985] or X'Pert High Score Plus 2.2a (2.2.1). The patterns for psilocin salts 8-10 were indexed using TOPAS 6 (TOPAS 6.0.0.9, 2018 Bruker AXS GmbH, Karlsruhe, Germany) along with Pawley refinements. Refinements are performed on all parameters simultaneously to a convergence of 0.001 in X². Indexing is the process of determining the size and shape of the crystallographic unit cell given the peak positions in a diffraction pattern. The term gets its name from the assignment of Miller index labels to individual peaks. If all of the peaks in a pattern are indexed by a single unit cell, this is strong evidence that the sample contains a single crystalline phase. Given the indexing solution, the unit cell volume may be calculated directly. Indexing is also a robust description of a crystalline form and provides a concise summary of all available peak positions for that phase at a particular thermodynamic state point. Within the figure referenced for a given indexed XRPD pattern, agreement between the allowed peak positions, with the indexing marked with either red bars in a box below the XRPD pattern (for salts 1-7 shown in FIGS. 2, 7, 12, 17, 22, 27, and 32 ) or blue tick marks marked on the x-axis below the XPRD pattern (for salts 8-10 in FIGS. 37, 42, and 47 ), and the observed peaks indicates a consistent unit cell determination. Space groups consistent with the assigned extinction symbol, unit cell parameters, and derived quantities are either tabulated below the figures for salts 1-7 shown in FIGS. 2, 7, 12, 17, 22, 27, and 32 , or described below for salts 8-10 when discussing FIGS. 37, 42, and 47 .

Differential Scanning calorimetry (DSC): DSC analyses were performed on psilocin salts 1-7 using a Mettler-Toledo DSC3+ differential scanning calorimeter. A tau lag adjustment was performed with indium, tin, and zinc. The temperature and enthalpy were adjusted with octane, phenyl salicylate, indium, tin and zinc. The adjustment was then verified with octane, phenyl salicylate, indium, tin, and zinc. The sample was placed into a hermetically sealed aluminum DSC pan, the weight was accurately recorded, and the sample was inserted into the DSC cell. A weighed aluminum pan configured as the sample pan was placed on the reference side of the cell. The pan lid was pierced prior to sample analysis.

DSC analyses were performed on psilocin salts 8-10 using a TA Instruments Q2500 Discovery Series instrument. The instrument temperature calibration was performed using indium. The DSC cell was kept under a nitrogen purge of ˜50 mL per minute during each analysis. The sample was placed in a standard, crimped, aluminum pan and was heated from approximately 25° C. to 350° C. at a rate of 10° C. per minute.

Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA): Thermogravimetric analyses were performed on psilocin salts 1-7 using a Mettler-Toledo TGA/DSC3+ analyzer. Temperature and enthalpy adjustments were performed using indium, tin, zinc, and phenyl salicylate, and then verified with indium. The balance was verified with calcium oxalate. The sample was placed in an aluminum pan. The pan was hermetically sealed, the lid pierced, and the pan was then inserted into the TG furnace. A weighed aluminum pan configured as the sample pan was placed on the reference platform. The furnace was heated under nitrogen. Thermogravimetric analyses typically experience a period of equilibration at the start of each analysis, indicated by red parentheses on the thermograms; the starting temperature for relevant weight loss calculations is selected at a point beyond this region (typically above 35° C.) for accuracy.

TGA analyses were performed on psilocin salts 8-10 using a TA Instruments Q5500 Discovery Series instrument. The instrument balance was calibrated using class M weights and the temperature calibration was performed using alumel. The nitrogen purge was ˜40 mL per minute at the balance and ˜60 mL per minute at the furnace. Each sample was placed into a pre-tared platinum pan and heated from approximately 25° C. to 350° C. at a rate of 10° C. per minute.

Solution ¹H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy: The solution NMR spectra were acquired on psilocin salts 1-7 with an Avance 600 MHz spectrometer. The samples were prepared by dissolving approximately 5-10 mg of sample in methanol-d₄ containing TMS. The data acquisition parameters are provided on the spectrum.

The solution NMR spectra were acquired on psilocin salts 8-10 with a Bruker Avance II 400 spectrometer. Samples were prepared by dissolving material in DMSO-d6. The solutions were filtered and placed into individual 5-mm NMR tubes for subsequent spectral acquisition. The temperature controlled (295K) ¹H NMR spectra acquired on the Avance II 400 utilized a 5-mm cryoprobe operating at an observing frequency of 400.18 MHz.

Ion Chromatography (IC): A multi-element anion standard solution (Alltech Anion Mix 5, Part No. 269110, 50 μg/mL) was diluted 5-fold with water to a working concentration of 2000 μg/L. Ion chromatography analyses were performed using a Dionex ICS-5000⁺ series ion chromatograph. The ICS-5000⁺ consists of two chromatography systems that share an autosampler. The system used for anion detection was equipped with a gradient pump, an eluent generator module, a conductivity detector, and a suppressor (AERS 4 mm). A Dionex UTAC-ULP1 5×23 mm concentrator column was installed in place of the sample loop. A Dionex IonPac™ AG19 4×50 mm guard column and a Dionex IonPac™ AS19 4×250 mm analytical column were installed. Water (18.2 MΩ, dispensed from ELGA Purelab Flex 2) was used to fill the eluent reservoir, for standard preparations, and for autosampler flush. DMSO was used for sample preparation and associated blank injections.

Example 1: 1:1 Psilocin Benzoate Salt, 1 1.1 Preparation of the 1:1 Psilocin Benzoate Salt, 1

A slightly turbid suspension of 200.0 mg of psilocin (Cayman Chemical, lot 0594443) in 20 mL of diethyl ether (Sigma Aldrich, lot SHBL6577) was decolorized with activated charcoal and filtered through a 0.2-μm nylon filter. Approximately half of the clear solution was added to 59.8 mg of benzoic acid (Sigma Aldrich, lot MKCL7479). The sample was agitated by hand until precipitates formed. The sample was left undisturbed at ambient temperature for one day and then the precipitant was isolated by water aspirated vacuum filtration.

1.2 XRPD Characterization of the 1:1 Psilocin Benzoate Salt, 1

The experimental XRPD pattern of the 1:1 psilocin benzoate salt 1 is shown in FIG. 1 . Table 1 lists the angles, ° 2θ±0.2° 2θ, and d-spacing of the peaks identified in the experimental XRPD pattern of FIG. 1 .
